Design Process

In all of my design projects I start by listening to what my clients want to accomplish, their budget and time constraints, and the look and feel they would like to achieve as a final result. The client determines the level of detail and extent of the services in choosing the Design Service level (Virtual Design, Advice for your Do It Yourself (DIY) Project, Comprehensive Design, Turn Key Design Services). In order to create a successful design I utilize the following process:
• Space Planning—Measuring the area and creating floor plans to insure that the space functions as efficiently as possible. The space plan must consider function, traffic flow, special needs, and ease of movement.
• Color Consultation—Recommending colors and finishes for walls, furniture, cabinets, floor coverings, trim and accessories to create a beautiful luxurious cohesive look for the space consistent with the architecture of the home.
• Furniture and Material Selections—Recommending furniture, cabinets, fixtures, fittings, doors, molding, lighting, accessories; and window, floor, and wall coverings and finishes. Knowledge of green design resources and skill in making the home more accessible for the long term will be applied to help make your home safer, healthier, and more comfortable.
• Budget estimates—Documenting the design selections and providing estimates for products to be purchased. Project management and purchasing services available to save you time and money.
• Referrals—Providing referrals for contractors, craftsmen, and suppliers whose services you may choose to use for your project.
• Client notebook—As a final product, creating a notebook containing the drawings, specifications, product pictures and details, color schemes and other information for you to refer to in the future as you implement the plan and continue to make changes in your home. (In a Virtural Design this is done online through the electronic bulletin board application Pinterest).
• Implementation–I will also coordinate with your contractor or crafts people as they build the design to resolve problems and make the changes that are often required as the construction moves forward.
